I was disappointed to hear that a co-worker had to cancel a upcoming wedding at your facility due to a easily verifiable medical emergency. It’s even more upsetting that you are choosing to NOT do the right thing by not offering ANY refund. What does it take to get a refund? A death??

Seeing as the owner replies to many of the reviews, I am willing to delete my review should I be proven incorrect.

Not worth the cost! Food was okay but it was served family style. More like wedding banquet type affair. We were at a table in the back and appetizers barely made it to our group. Had to complain before we saw a try with more than two appetizers left for a group of 12 people. Bar is not included and very limited selection. By the time the evening was over tab for two was $250. Could have a nice meal and good drinks at a full service restaurant for less. Can’t recommend it!!

I had my wedding here in early July 2021 and it was absolutely magical thanks to Heritage Prairie Farm! I heard from several people how I was a "chill bride" but it's because the staff at the Farm made everything so easy! I knew I was in good hands and they were very communicative and accommodating for my requests. It was the best wedding ever thanks to this amazing venue!

My daughter and son-in-law had their wedding here on 5/14/21 and I cannot stop thinking about it. The venue was amazing, the coordinator was hardworking and friendly, and the staff was excellent. Not a detail was missed from the moment the bridal party arrived, until the last guest left. From start to finish we felt cared for. The ready rooms for both the men and women were well stocked with drinks, safety pins, breath mints, etc. Anything needed was handy (like scissors and needle and thread!). Our friends and family marveled over the touches like mason jars, eclectic dishes and spots to take

Heritage Prairie Farm is a literal DREAM venue. We booked this venue in February 2019 for an October 2020 wedding. My husband had been to a wedding there a few years ago and still remembered how amazing the food was. Since food was a top priority for us, we booked without even touring it (they only had a few fall saturdays left and didn't want to miss out!). This venue is so unique. You get the cute farmhouse to get ready in. You don't need to leave the grounds to get seriously amazing photos. You can opt for the chef to prepare you a farm to table lunch that was seriously amazing

Only thing that deserves a star is the food, everything else was a nightmare. Happy to explain further for those contemplating having their wedding at heritage prairie farm, variwedding@gmail.com. Fisherman's inn, also in Elburn was my second choice, similar price point. Definitely wish I would've went to fisherman's. I've reached out to the owner after my wedding and she refuses to talk to me about my nightmare of a wedding day. Don't believe me? Try it. Her name is Jessica. I had an appointment to talk to her and that day came and went and the next day her assistant called

We used Heritage Prairie Farm last weekend for our wedding and we were so, so, so happy with how it went. Special shout out to Liz and Tina for helping everything run so smoothly and paying attention to even the tiniest of last minute details; I was so impressed with their service and thoughtfulness! Our wedding was fully vegetarian and almost fully vegan; I wasn't entirely sure it could be done but they did it! Not only did they do it, they were able to accommodate gluten free guests as well, and I had several of my traditional, meat eating guests come up to me and say that it was the best

Went to Farm Dinner on Thursday 13 September. Lovely location. Big line for drinks that took about 20 mins upon arrival. Need more help at bar to start. I have one major observation. For $85 everyone had to use the same one plate for all courses. When you have a 'soup' that wasn't really a soup more like a slad with lost of dressing. Hen. Then a not very nice whitefish (which strangely was the last course before dessert) both your plate and silverware were swimming with, and dirty from,several mixed courses. Everyone on the table commented on how unpleasant that became. There may

I love HPF so much--very good memories here from 2014-15 with my kids BUT in the past 2 yrs we cannot seem to get in to Wed pizza night; the demand is high understandably but it's not so close to my house that I want to "maybe" go to the pizza farm with hungry kids. What a letdown. It's a great experience once you're there on a beautiful evening, I'd love to relive the memories but it's short of impossible to get in.

I am saddened my tonight's experience. Before tonight, I was the biggest fan of Heritage Prairie Farm. I told everyone to visit for their unique experience and beautiful setting. But, tonight I felt hurt and confused.
Our group of friends made a plan a couple of months ago to attend tonight's pizza night. Knowing the number of crusts is limited, we made special arrangements to get there promptly from different towns. The lot doesn't open until 4:45, so when we arrived at 4:30 we were more than content to wait. Unfortunately, the staff was not patient or polite about our desire

Heritage Prairie Farm hosts a Wednesday night pizza dinner and I was in the area visiting so I went! We got there twenty minutes early and the gate was closed and did not open until 4:45 which was a bit annoying. So we had to wait on the side until the gates opened to park. Once you enter, you purchase as many tickets as you would like in exchange for pizzas which cost $15 each. Also, they sell a maximum of 200 pizzas and sell out quickly, so I would recommend coming early. I ordered three pizzas: the BBQ, Red Farm, and Simpleton. The BBQ pizza had smoked pork, coleslaw, cilantro, chihuahua cheese

*****UPDATED PRIOR TO LAST POST***
So funny thing is after I posted this someone from heritage farm found my phone number and is obviously prank calling me. Sad Jessica on Brundige Rd(which is the rd the farm is on) left me a message interested in my "ideas". It's a really odd message and I don't get calls on my cell phone at 9:40 at night about people looking to learn more about my ideas and solutions.
This just gets more comical by the minute. Sad people don't realize that google can trace a number.

Heritage Prairie Farms has copy/pasted the same generic message to a lot of people today who wrote non-positive reviews about yesterday's event.
Until yesterday, they received a couple/few reviews per month. Last night a handful of folks provided them feedback about the observations and attitudes witnessed. Today, a lot of people wrote 5 star reviews and they're back to a 4 star cumulative rating.
I'm not making an accusation. I'm observing context and suggesting that if you're interested in them that you consider these things. To me, it seems suspect. Maybe

Enjoyed a fabulous farm to table Salmon BBQ dinner tonight. Beautiful setting. Fabulous service. Amazing Food.
Had delicious dinner roles and corn bread muffins as we sat down. Appetizer of pickled cucumbers onions cherry tomatoes and more.
Also salted Cod yummy.
On to the main course - BBQ Salmon with a great tasting homemade sausage. Had greens and smashed red potatoes.
We finished our meal with overnight oats.
Our table enjoyed the Peaches and Cream as well as the Strawberry/Blueberry. We will definitely return. Loved every aspect of this dinner.

We had our wedding at Heritage Prairie Farm on 8/20/16 and although the weather was not on our side in the beginning, the wedding and reception were perfect beyond words. Melisa helped walk us through every step of the way leading up to our wedding day and exceeded our every expectation on our wedding day by making sure no detail was overlooked. Her calm and warm personality kept us cool and collected during some of the more stressful weather-related issues that came up just before the wedding.

Stopped here for their Wednesday pizza nights during the summer months. I'm so glad I pre-ordered our pizzas. We arrived at 6 PM and they were already sold out.
And, there was nowhere to park on the grounds so we had to park a mile down the road. Not exaggerating. My Fitbit was pleased.
Went to confirm our pre-order and was told it was a 2 hour wait. I understand that woodfire pizzas take awhile but maybe people that have pre-ordered should get priority? Not sure how to rectify that. Thankfully, the grounds are great for strolling and we indulged in some beverages.
Precisely 120 minutes

We had our wedding at Heritage Prairie Farm this past November, and had a great experience! Jennie was a dream to work with! She was very quick to respond to all of my emails, and was very helpful. Whether is was a question about the length of the dessert table, or a debate on fabrics, she was on top of it. They make you feel like you are the only wedding, and not like you are part of a place that just pumps out weddings every weekend.
The food and cocktails were outstanding as well! Everyone raved about the food and the bourbon apple cider was to die for! We were pretty much given free range

Heritage Prairie Farms was the spot for a wedding I recently attended as a plus one. I was just going with a friend, so I went in with zero expectations. What I left with was quite the positive impression.
Parking was a snap. We were early, but we easily found parking and walked toward the barn where the ceremony would take place. The grounds are gorgeous! So rustic and homey. I wish we would have taken the time to look around. We also missed the shop (that I think was open upon our arrival). I just have to go back to see what I missed.
The ceremony was beautiful! Most of that was the sentiment
